Anyway ... rather than setting up a tent for the last time in the pouring rain & lightening, then packing it up wet (it's humid in Nebraska!), flying it to Virginia & cleaning a been-wet-for-four-days tent that's borrowed to begin with, we copped out & opted for a super cheap, but super nice motel room in Kearne, Nebraska. Call us wimps, wusses, whatever you like - we need a good night's sleep & food that's not cooked from the back of the car. It turns out, camp food does wear on a person!
So we asked the woman at the desk of this little independently owned motel where a good place to grab dinner would be & she thought for a second before Beth said "oh, & I'm a vegetarian." The look on her face was priceless - as in "you're a vege-what?" Then she ACTUALLY SAID: "You're in the wrong state for that!" And THEN ... she recommended a STEAK HOUSE because they might have a salad bar!!!
We went for pizza. And it was delicious!
And we'll be leaving Nebraska tomorrow ASAP ... right after we sleep in!
One redeeming fact about Nebraska: apparently, it's the home of Arbor Day!

See you should've gone through Kansas instead of Nebraska... Lawrence, KS, especially is run by veggie-terrians. Oh well... Maybe next time. (Also, KS isn't as flat at NE ;-)
